'Touch' star Kiefer Sutherland 'wants to work with father Donald'

Kiefer Sutherland has revealed that he is keen to appear opposite his father Donald Sutherland in new Fox drama Touch.

The series - from Heroes creator Tim Kring - stars the younger Sutherland as Martin Bohm, a father who discovers that his mute son Jake (David Mazouz) can predict future events.

"We're working on episodes five and six right now, but I certainly have conveyed to Tim Kring... that my father is someone who I would very, very much like to work with," Kiefer told reporters in a recent conference call.

He added: "My father knows of this piece and I certainly have talked to him about it."

However, the former 24 star clarified that there are currently no solid plans for his father to play a guest role.

"We certainly do not have a script or a story or anything like that," he explained. "But it certainly is open."
